Has 3 Hours Exercise/day Made Me HEAVY?

I was losing weight and was down to 124 Ibs but then it climbed up to 126 and it will not go back down!

I made the mistake (?) of upping my exercise lots and doing an hour + on my resistance stationary bike as well as speed walking and calisthetics/toning for an hour.

My thighs are solid muscle pretty much. But I do not want this. I want to get back down to 124.
It isn't my diet as I eat 1600 calories or less.

PLEASE TELL ME WHAT EXERCISE i NEED TO CUT DOWN ON/CUT OUT TO DROP SOME OF THIS MUSCLE AND LOSE WEIGHT AGAIN ?

*sigh* it might be only 2 Ibs, but then there might be another 2 and another 2 and so on.

How hard is it for someone to tell me what exercise to do that will not gain so much muscle?

You have to remember that muscle mass weighs more than fat. So when you work harder you're going to gain muscle which can put on weight.

If you want to lose the muscle mass, you should probably cut back on the exercise. Unless you are an athlete in training, there really isn't a need to exercise more than 30-45 minutes a day.

Furthermore, with the amount of exercising you do, a 1600 calorie diet probably isn't enough to maintain good health.

I won't pretend to be a professional, but I'm guessing you are over obsessive about your weight. Throw away the scale and just learn to be happy with yourself.

EDIT
There is no one specific exercise to cut based on what you described. You need to cut your intensity and total amount of exercise. Your body needs about 1200 calories a day just to maintain basic functions. While you may only be consuming 1600 per day, if you are exercising for three hours at a high level every day, it won't be long before your body starts to eat muscle mass and/or your internal organs to provide the necessary energy. That is not healthy.

To put this into a plain physical context, muscle weighs more than fat.

So while the exercise you are doing is to be commended, it is causing you to gain weight.

My professional opinion, is to look at the exercises that you are doing, and try to lose fat from the appropriate areas, then, not to put an emphasis on weight, but on shape and size.

The best identifier of this is your Body Mass Index figure.

Try not to focus on calories and instead try to keep a balanced diet. That is far more important than eating less calories, or exercising.

the more muscle you have the heavier you get but its is good for you, so don't worry about it it is just 2 lbs. try drinking water and doing cardio workouts like running, jogging or simply walking but make sure you stay hydrated.

do lots of cardio and yoga/pilates in betweens..

Please you only gained weight because you got muscle and muscle weighs more than fat.
BUT muscle makes your body look toned and firm, so it is a good thing!

Your gaining muscle muscle is heavier than fat

just eat a doughnut and everything will be fine

Shut up its 2 pounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

muscle weighs more than fat!
